Which assessment type allows users to select any HITRUST authoritative source?

TheReadiness Assessmentis designed to give organizations flexibility when evaluating their security and compliance posture. Unlike validated assessments, which are bound by specific methodologies, thresholds, and QA requirements, the readiness format allows entities to scope assessments more freely. This includes the ability to selectany HITRUST authoritative source, such as HIPAA, PCI-DSS, NIST, ISO, or GDPR, for self-assessment purposes. The readiness option is often used for gap analysis, remediation planning, and preparing for a future validated assessment. Since the results are not submitted to HITRUST QA, organizations can tailor the assessment to their needs without external restrictions. Neither e1, i1, nor r2 assessments provide this level of flexibility, as those validated assessments are standardized and tightly controlled.
